Shanghai, the financial center of China, will send a delegation to recruit talents for the city's financial sector which was encouraged by the success last year, Xinhuanet.com reported on Thursday.
The delegation will go to New York, Toronto and Singapore on December 5th, 9th and 13th in search of high level financial employees.
Seventeen central and local financial institutions in Shanghai listed 115 vacancies, mainly covering the fields of banking, Funds and Security Investment.
At present, Shanghai sees an excess of junior employees but a serious deficiency of senior financial talents, said Ji Wenguan, director of CPC Financial Working Committee of Shanghai. Therefore, a large number of high level specialists are desperately needed to build Shanghai into a global financial and shipping center.
66 financial talents, who were recruited from abroad last year, together with their current employers, expressed their satisfactions about their present jobs and lives in Shanghai.
A series of preferential policies are also being worked out by the municipal government to help resolve actual difficulties of the talents, such as the problems of housing, social insurance and children's education, according to Ji.
Hua lei, one of the specialists coming back from the U.S last year, said that there are a good many opportunities now in China to develop financial services. Besides, Shanghai also provides fairly good working and living conditions, such as high quality health care and educational facilities and services.
In addition to job fairs held regularly overseas every year, other forms of recruitment, such as collecting and storing information of talents via databases, will also be adopted to pool over more overseas talents in the future.
Seeking skillful talents for the constantly increasing needs is also under consideration by the Shanghai government.
